A nurse is preparing to administer betamethasone 12mg IM to a client at 32 weeks gestation at risk for preterm delivery.

Betamethasone is available as 6mg/ml. How many ml will the nurse prepare for injection? (Use a leading zero, if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero)

Based on the provided information:

1. Boggy fundus: This indicates uterine atony, which is a primary cause of postpartum hemorrhage. Addressing this immediately is crucial to prevent excessive bleeding.
2. Heavy lochia with small clots: This further supports the concern for postpartum hemorrhage, necessitating prompt attention to assess and manage the bleeding.

Therefore, the nurse should first address the client's Fundus (Option A) followed by the client's Lochia (Option C).

So, the completed sentence would be:

"The nurse should first address the client's Fundus followed by the client's Lochia."

Choice A rationale

A family history of breast cancer, particularly in a close relative like a sister, is a significant risk factor for breast cancer.

Choice B rationale

Exposure to radiation, particularly in the chest area, increases the risk of developing breast cancer.

Choice C rationale

Current use of oral contraceptives can slightly increase the risk of breast cancer, though the risk diminishes after stopping the pills.

Choice D rationale

Age less than 25 years is not a risk factor for breast cancer; risk increases with age.
